Ad Optimization Strategies: Reach vs. Page Visits vs. Leads with Dorado Ads

Hi there, fellow entrepreneurs! I’m Mike Zagare, founder of Dorado Ads, and today I’m going to break down some essential ad optimization strategies for Amazon Local Ads—also known as non-endemic ads. If you’re using Amazon’s powerful advertising platform to grow your local business, knowing how to optimize for reach, page visits, and leads is critical.

Non-endemic ads are Amazon’s newest and most exciting tool for local businesses that aren’t selling products directly on Amazon but still want to harness the platform's incredible reach. Whether you’re driving foot traffic to your physical store, increasing page visits to your site, or capturing leads directly through Amazon, Dorado Ads has got you covered.

Let’s dive in and explore how to optimize for these three key goals and make your Amazon Local Ads truly shine!

Understanding Different Optimization Goals

Before we jump into the details, here’s a quick rundown:

• Reach: Expand your brand’s visibility by showing your ads to as many people as possible.
• Page Visits: Drive traffic to your website or landing page, where potential customers can learn more about your offerings.
• Leads: Capture contact information directly from potential customers using Amazon’s new lead forms.

Each goal is a step toward greater business growth, and each requires a different optimization approach. Let me guide you through how to master each one.

1. Optimizing for Reach with Dorado Ads

If you’re just starting to build your local presence or launching a new product, your goal may be to increase reach. In this case, we want to get your brand in front of as many eyes as possible. This is a top-of-funnel strategy that sets the stage for bigger things.

Key Strategies for Optimizing Reach:

• Broad Audience Targeting: We don’t want to limit your potential by getting too narrow with targeting. Dorado Ads leverages Amazon’s advanced audience data to reach the widest possible audience. Think of it like casting a wide net—you’ll get more fish that way.
• High-Impact Creatives: When building awareness, first impressions matter. Your ad needs to grab attention immediately. With Dorado Ads, we ensure your visuals are bold, your messaging is clear, and your brand shines. It’s all about being memorable!
• Maximize Impressions: Here’s the trick—set your campaign to prioritize impressions. The more times your ad is seen, the better your brand recall. Think about it: Amazon’s millions of active users are waiting to discover you!

Example of an Effective Reach Campaign: Let’s say you’re running a high-end auto dealership in the local area. Dorado Ads creates an eye-catching campaign using Amazon’s non-endemic ads. The goal? Make sure every potential customer in your target zip codes knows about your upcoming sales event. You’ll flood the local market with your message and get people talking!

2. Optimizing for Page Visits with Dorado Ads

Looking to drive page visits? Whether you want users to check out a new product line or explore your services, the key here is to get them off Amazon and onto your site.

Key Strategies for Optimizing Page Visits:

• Targeted Audience Segmentation: When it comes to clicks, we’re focusing on high-intent users. Dorado Ads zeroes in on shoppers who are actively searching for services or products related to yours. This isn’t just spray-and-pray—it's precision targeting.
• Compelling Call to Action (CTA): Your CTA is the engine that drives clicks. It has to be clear, engaging, and actionable. We help craft CTAs like “Discover Now” or “Book Your Appointment,” creating a direct path from ad to action.
• Optimized Landing Pages: Once they’ve clicked, it’s crucial your landing page doesn’t let you down. With Dorado Ads, we make sure the landing pages match the intent of the ad, load quickly, and offer exactly what the user came for. It’s all about converting interest into engagement.
• A/B Testing: You won’t find us running the same ads over and over. We’ll test different headlines, images, and CTAs to see what resonates best. Then, we double down on what works. That’s the Dorado difference.

Example of an Effective Page Visits Campaign: A luxury day spa uses Amazon non-endemic ads through Dorado to target users in high-income zip codes. By offering a “Learn More” CTA linked to a beautiful landing page showcasing their high-end services, they drive a steady flow of visitors ready to book their next appointment.

3. Optimizing for Leads with Amazon's Lead Forms

Here’s where it gets really exciting—Amazon’s new lead forms make it easier than ever to capture customer details without sending users away from the platform. With Dorado Ads, we’ll help you leverage this feature to generate qualified leads directly within Amazon’s ecosystem.

Key Strategies for Optimizing Leads:

• Leverage Amazon’s Lead Forms: We make lead generation seamless. With lead forms built into the ad, users can submit their info right then and there. No need to hop to another site—this keeps friction low and completion rates high.
• Offer Something Compelling: You’ve got to give people a reason to hand over their details. Dorado Ads helps craft offers that resonate—whether it’s a free consultation, a special offer, or early access. We’ll make sure your ad highlights the value.
• Geo-Targeting for Local Leads: Dorado taps into Amazon’s geo-targeting tools to focus on the areas where your leads matter most. Whether it’s specific zip codes or a tight radius around your business, we’ll ensure that your ads reach the right people at the right time.
• Track and Optimize in Real Time: With Amazon’s dashboard, we track the number of leads, cost per lead, and adjust in real-time. This allows us to optimize on the fly and maximize your ROI.

Example of an Effective Lead Generation Campaign: A dental clinic specializing in implants uses Dorado’s expertise to target users searching for dental services on Amazon. By offering a free consultation through an in-ad lead form, the clinic captures high-quality leads in the local area, without users ever leaving Amazon. It’s efficient, seamless, and highly effective.
